Re: [Assp-user] Spam having headers added correctly

Thanks, this may explain why I was not seeing additional X-Assp-Spam: YES
headers in version 1.0.9. I will upgrade to 1.1.0 and make sure to check m=
y
assp.cfg for those mentioned issues. You have been a great help and I
appreciate it very much.
